Wing Off: Armstrong A Wing vs. Wing Ride Model III vs. SlingWing V2

[@dekzan]

Ordered my Armie 4.5 today, my first wing. Thanks folks at Real Watersports, great attention and kindness.

Great video! Love how we are all getting picky now :)

[@REALmattnuzzo]

😂 Right!

[@jeroenjansen2709]

You can either use a rigid wing with a small area or a flexible wing with a bigger area.

Great reviews. Thanks.

Why not include the WASP???

[@REALmattnuzzo]

We actually had a 5m and 6m Wasp we were riding as well. The Wasp is a coach favorite at REAL. It was our baseline to test against. We found the Wasp still held it’s own against these other wings. The Wing Ride and Armstrong has better board speed and upwind performance than the Wasp. Wasp had similar power to the Wing Ride, more than the Slingwing and less than the Armstrong. Slingwing luffed out better than the Wasp. We did a comparison video with the Wasp and S25 Naish already so figured we would just keep this video to the three new models.

But maybe ozone is making the A wing??

[@REALWatersports]

Nope, Armie developed the A-Wing in house, check out more info on that at www.realwatersports.com/products/armstrong-a-wing

Please post the weights and span of the wings. Weight is almost everything in wingfoiling. The Rigid frame is overrated what is important is stable draft and ability to spill excess power without moving the draft backwards
